Prosecutions

Britain has one of the strongest legislative frameworks in Europe for fighting hate crime and extremism, but it is not being used. Though antisemitic hate crime has risen to record levels, the list of prosecutions has yet to record more than two dozen prosecutions per annum, out of more than 15,000 hate crimes that are prosecuted annually. In the absence of law enforcement, antisemitism will continue to spread, antisemites will become bolder, attacks on Jews will become more common and more ferocious, the Jewish community will become more fearful, and the golden era for Jews in Britain will have ended. The situation has become so desperate that we have now launched multiple lawsuits, including judicial review proceedings against the Crown Prosecution Service and private prosecutions of individuals that the authorities have failed to prosecute themselves. The Crown Prosecution Service refuses to disclose how many cases of antisemitism it prosecutes each year, so we maintain our own register of prosecutions.
